Targeting mutant dicer tumorigenesis in pleuropulmonary blastoma via inhibition of RNA polymerase I.

DICER1 mutations predispose to increased risk for various cancers, particularly pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB), the commonest lung malignancy of childhood. There is a paucity of directly actionable molecular targets as these tumors are driven by loss-of-function mutations of DICER1. Therapeutic development for PPB is further limited by a lack of biologically and physiologically-representative disease models.

Explainable classifier for improving the accountability in decision-making for colorectal cancer diagnosis from histopathological images.

Pathologists are responsible for cancer type diagnoses from histopathological cancer tissues. However, it is known that microscopic examination is tedious and time-consuming. In recent years, a long list of machine learning approaches to image classification and whole-slide segmentation has been developed to support pathologists.
